The Kobe University Summer Program in Japanese Language & Culture (Summer Program) is an intensive 10-day course for students studying Japanese at Universities sharing academic partnerships with Kobe University. The 2023 session will be held in-class.
This program focusses on engaging students' Reading, Listening, Writing & Speaking skills through studying current issues in Japan, aiming to raise overall Japanese ability, as well as deepening understanding today's Japanese society. It particularly aims to strengthen the speaking ability of students at Upper Intermediate level. Through classes and interaction with Japanese people, we hope to provide an experience as close to studying in Japan as possible. We welcome all students to apply--especially those who planned to study abroad if not for COVID-19.
